Best on camera mic for making videos - Sony vs Rode

Having used the Rode VideoMic Pro + for the last few years, I recently picked up the brand new Sony ECM-B10 which I am hugely impressed with. But microphone is best for making videos?

Which microphone would you choose out of the Sony or the Rode? 😊

[paulthiebaut]

I'm surprised nobody has mentioned the shock mount noise issues with the Sony mic which is a big no-go imo

[MkeSpade]

So theoretically you could use the Sony ecm-b1m as a mic when streaming on your desk, right?

I love the convenience of sony, but honestly Rode sounds better to my ear.

Hi Scott, thanks for the video. I just have doubts between both of them. I want to Vlog but I dont know if in the future I could use it for other thing.

Unfortunately, you screwed the comparison up by putting the Sony and cardioid mode instead of super cardioid mode.

Hey Scott, is the Sony mic compatible with the ZV1?

[ivlog]

How can this video have nearly 300k likes by only 4.7k views?!
Btw it’s a Great video ! ❤
The numbers just confused me 😂

[CoVending]

Is this compatible with the Sony A7iii?
